Yamaha Concert Marimba Features

1. High-Quality Tone Bars

Tone bars are made of Honduras rosewood, which

delivers an ideal marimba tone and timbre, and Afri-

can padauk, which offers a rich sound that is soft and

deep. After allowing the woods to dry naturally over

time, only the finest select pieces are selected for

use in making the tone bars.

Type F models use Yamaha's FRP Acoustalon tone

bars that have a unique semi-hollow design. These

bars deliver a clear sound that is extremely close to

the sound produced by high-quality rosewood. It of-

fers excellent projection, and full volume. Compared

to wood tone bars, Acoustalon is highly weather re-

sistant, being little affected by changes in tempera-

ture and humidity, which can alter the pitch.

2. Fine Tuning

Tone bars are tuned by the highly refined ears and

skills of our technicians and precision strobe tuners

in an environmentally controlled room in which both

temperature and humidity are kept constant. Precise

tuning of the harmonic overtones, which determine

timbre, results in stable pitch and tone without any

unevenness.

3. Easy Assembly/Disassembly

The instrument is designed to offer easy assembly

and disassembly to provide convenient storing and

transport. The YM-460, 460F, 410D, and 46 utilize

folding designs with two-section frames and pipes to

provide the utmost in compact convenience.

4. Height Adjustment

(YM-460, 460F, 410, 410F)

Height adjustable models offer smooth height adjust-

ment. Locking screws fit into channels on leg pipes to

eliminate slippage ad looseness.

The YM-460/460F offers a 5-step height adjustment

that goes from 89cm at its lowest position, to 97cm at

its highest. Since the YM-410/410F is adjustable in

7-steps, from 76cm to 88cm, it promotes proper play-

ing posture from children to adults.

5. Large Casters

Large 100mm-diameter casters offer smoother

transport. (YM-46 and 41 utilize 75mm-diameter

casters).

6. 3-Step Height Adjustment for Resonator

Pipes

Resonator height can be adjusted in 3-steps to avoid

loss of ideal resonance due to temperature changes.

(The YM-41 only provides 2-step adjustment.)
